Donghyeon Soon
I am a final-year undergraduate student at DGIST, South Korea, and a research intern at the Intelligent Systems and Learning Lab, advised by Daehee Park.
I also work closely with Kyungdon Joo at UNIST and Hezhen Hu at UT Austin.
My research focuses on 3D vision and generative modeling, particularly in 3D/4D reconstruction and parametric modeling of humans and animals.

Research
My research focuses on developing models for reconstructing, animating, and generating dynamic
3D and 4D content, especially for animals and humans. My work combines synthetic data pipelines,
parametric animal and human models, and generative methods to turn 2D images and videos into
animatable 3D/4D representations. I enjoy building tools and models that expand the creative
and scientific possibilities of computer vision and graphics.

4D Animal Mesh Reconstruction
In submission
[paper] / [project page]
We present a synthetic animal video pipeline and a video transformer model for reconstructing
temporally coherent 4D animal motion and global trajectories from monocular in-the-wild videos.

Not Like Transformers: Drop the Beat Representation for Dance Generation with Mamba-Based Diffusion Model
Sangjune Park, Inhyeok Choi, Donghyeon Soon, Youngwoo Jeon, Kyungdon Joo
WACV 2026
Also presented at ICCVW 2025 Workshop on Generative Models for Audio-Visual Creation (Gen4AVC)
[paper] / [project page]
We propose a Mamba-based diffusion framework for music-driven dance generation with a redesigned
beat representation for better motion modeling and rhythm alignment.

DogRecon: Canine Prior-Guided Animatable 3D Gaussian Dog Reconstruction From a Single Image
Gyeongsu Cho, Changwoo Kang, Donghyeon Soon, Kyungdon Joo
International Journal of Computer Vision (IJCV), 2025
Also presented at CVPR 2024 Workshop on Computer Vision for Animals (CV4Animals)
[paper] / [project page]
DogRecon reconstructs an animatable 3D Gaussian dog from a single RGB image by incorporating
canine priors and robust geometry-aware optimization.
